Orphen & Orphen: The Revenge


Orphen and it's sequel Orphen: The Revenge are an anime that deals with magic, sorcerers and dragons. The main character is a young man who goes by his chosen name, Orphen who along with his apprentice Majic and a female tagalong Cleao who go on a quest to find a way to return the dragon, Bloody August to her human form, who happens to be Orphen's childhood friend and classmate from his days at The Tower a place where young sorcerers go to learn magic.

This anime has many twists and turns, but keeps you interested all the way to the end. But the character Cleao got on my nerves sometimes, I don't know why, maybe it was her voice actress, but I don't think so since I've heard the same voice actress doing other animes and it never bothered me before. I guess it just the character. Oh well, at least Orphen and Majic keep the show rolling.

Saiyuki: Requiem The Movie


This movie goes along with the Saiyuki tv series and the others that follw this classic anime. Our favorite group comes up upon a young demon girl in trouble and after helping her out accept her offer for a meal and a place to stay the night.
Unknowst to them they have fallen into a trap set for them by an old monk from their past.....

I found this anime movie very good and it had some of the chacters doing some unusal and different things then what you see them do in the anime series.

Hanaukyo Maid Team

Ok, I have just finished the anime Hanaukyo Maid Team. I must say that the anime sounded better then it actually was. It begins with a young man named Taro who's mother has passed away. He goes to live at his grandfather's mansion, where he is named the family head of a very wealthy family. There he has countless maids to take care of his every whim and they all seem to live just to serve him. In the end Taro grows very close to the head maid Mariel who has a few secrets of her own..

Full Metal Panic: The Second Raid



Ok, this is another cool anime that has everything from comedy to giant robots fighting. It also might be helping if you watch the first part of this series, so that you'll be able to understand this one a bit better.

Midori Days


This anime is crazy and funny and it's perfect for when you want to unwind. It begins with a teenage boy wanting a girlfriend, but he has no luck, since all the girls he asks, turns him down. But in the shadows, is Midori, a girl who secretly has a crush on him. Then all of a sudden one day he wakes up with Midori as his right hand. So the series is about how they deal with being stuck together while trying to figure out how to get back to normal.

Black Cat


























Ok, I have finally made it back here to update this blog. Ok, this anime, Black Cat was pretty good, I believe, but it did have some slow parts that seemed to slow down the anime. I liked the whole Train and Creed story line and the one episode where Train is turned back into a child and he had to wear one of Eve's dresses while the others went shopping for some clothes that would fit him. LoL!
But the last few episodes, mainly the Eve saga kinda sucked, but watchable.

Ultra Maniac


Alright this 26 episode anime is about a transfer student named Nina, who happens to be from the Magis Kingdom and a witch in training. She comes to Earth to look for the Holy Stones. While on her quest to find the Holy Stones and to strenghten her magic skills, she meets her best friend Ayu, who also helps her on her assorted quests. But just as things look like things are going their way, trouble comes along in the form of Nina's cousin, who also happens to like to dabble in the dark arts, is also in search of the holy stones.

Video Girl Ai


This rather short anime runs for six episodes and is about a speical video store where only those pure of heart can see. The main chacter Yota finds this video store open on a dark a foggy night, just after he is turned down by the girl he loves, there he rents Video Girl Ai. As he watches the video at home Ai realizes that he needs help fixing his broken heart and starts climbing out of his tv screen, but thanks to Yota's broken vcr, something goes wrong and Ai comes out with a couple of lose wires, which makes her even more of a handful for Yota to take care of.

Boogiepop Phantom


Ok, now this anime Boogiepop Phantom is kinda confusing, even more then the anime Lain. It runs for 12 episodes and you must really pay attention and watch each episode carefully to keep up with the story cause it tends to skip around alot.

The story tends to surround Boogiepop Phantom, who or what she is is up in the air, but when she is around you know that something bad is about to happen.

Hand Maid May


This is an 11 episode anime called Hand Maid May. It begins with the main character, Kazuya who happens to be a computer/robot wizard and his best friend/enemy Nanbara uploads a viris on Kazura's computer hoping to ruin all his work, but instead Kazuya ends up accidently orders a Hand Maid May cyborg who is only a foot tall. As he grows to attached to May he has to come up with her $1,450,000.00 bill or send her back....
This anime was alright, but it had a bit too much panty flashes for me.

Trouble Chocolate


Trouble Chocolate is a 20 episode anime which is about a teenage boy named Cacao and his life at his school, Micro-Grand Acadamy. Which is unlike any school you have ever heard of. First of all, you can take classes in sorcery and they also have a Scientific Missionn Attack Team to help defend the school against all sorts of strange creatures that show up.

Anyawys one day during sourcery Cacao makes a mistake and out of his mistake comes a girl named Hinano, who happens to be made out of wood and his life his never the same again.

I really liked this anime and would recommend it to anybody who likes funny and crazy animes.
